Automobile Accidents Lawyers

Being in a car accident can be scary, but the aftermath of that accident can be just as terrifying and confusing. Car accidents can happen to anyone at any time. No matter how safe of a driver you may be, there are always drivers on the road who are careless and who have the potential to cause serious accidents. Even though you may not be at fault, you may still be left with serious injuries, medical expenses and an insurance company that does not want to pay for those claims. The insurance company immediately begins its investigation with the hope of limiting the amount of your recovery on behalf of their insured. You are alone and inexperienced, battling insurance adjusters to decide how to obtain and pay for necessary medical treatment. How do you begin to evaluate your claim for damages, injuries, harms and losses?

Your Rights as an Auto Accident Victim in Florida

Florida automobile accident law allows you to recover for the injuries and property damages that you sustained as the direct result of someone else’s negligent operation of a motor vehicle. Damages from these claims can include property damage, medical expenses, loss of income and future earnings as well as pain and suffering. However, it can be very difficult to handle a car accident while struggling to obtain the necessary medical treatment. That is why you need the help of an experienced Florida auto accident attorney.

At Wittmer | Linehan, we understand how frustrating it can be to recover your losses and damages. We have seen first hand the devastation that a car accident can cause to the victim and their family. Extensive medical bills, lost wages and the crippling injuries that victims must overcome are all serious obstacles that must be overcome in order to get their lives back in order. Insurance companies often make it as difficult as they can for individuals to get the proper reimbursement. Even when an insurance company makes an offer, the amount is rarely enough to cover all of the expenses and losses.
